We're proud to share how we've re-invented our programmes for these extraordinary times – always maintaining connection, community and our values (kindness, community, trust, bravery, learning) at their heart.
Just because we can’t physically be together at the moment, it doesn’t mean we can’t share laughter and friendship with our older neighbours. Download our #AloneTogether activity pack to be part of the community this April.
East London Cares is suspending programmes involving older people from March 13th until April 30th, due to the Coronavirus.
East London Cares helps people find connection in times of challenge and change, so we are taking the appropriate steps to protect neighbours and our community's health.

Earlier this month East London Cares welcomed 32 younger neighbours to their first ever volunteer induction. Despite the cold and dreary weather, the room was packed with people excited to get involved.
With winter on its way, East London Cares is kicking off its first Winter Wellbeing project to help older east Londoners keep warm, active and connected through the colder months. Our Volunteer and Outreach Coordinator Sasha shares what it's all about, and how you can help.
